The names were Latinised (apart from 1642-1657), so once again, I’ve provided two lists for the same period – the original, as directly transcribed with Latinised names, then another version where I’ve Anglicised the names, to try to take them back to what they were.

All this Latinising makes for complicated registers, and unlatinising makes it even more confusing! If you’re not comfortable with Latinised names, start with the Anglicised spreadsheet, then cross-check with the Latin version.
